The theme of masculinity runs through the film, and I can see a lot of people misplacing frustration at certain characters actions and missing the point. It is definitely more of a slow moving train, but its actors all do a job of carrying that pace.

Forrest Gump (1994) 5/5
Living in a timepiece of America through Forest and Jenny is as touching today as it was back then. It is not just a touching story about overcoming adversity, that would be far too small for this grand tale.
Run Hide Fight (2020) 0.5/5
I did not know what this was before going into it. I picked a random movie and just went. It took very little time to be know it had to be some politically driven film. Then it gets way worse with all the speeches.
I don’t care who makes the movie, but this was so in-your-face trying to stroke its hero complex to full attention. Uneven acting and poor direction add to the films problems. I see some people calling it Die Hard in a school, how dare you.
The biggest thing? For a movie that tries to be shocking, it really is dull.
The Finest Hours (2016) 3/5
Nothing is superb and nothing is awful. Solidly a middle of the road journey.
Dallas Buyers Club (2013) 4/5
Wandering just a little bit at times but with a strong cast and a lot of good choices.
Enemy (2013) 3/5
A subconscious roller coaster that is more interesting to ponder after the viewing.
Panic Room (2002) 3.5/5
I vibe hard with single location movies. Panic room is easily consumed and very rewatchable. There are clear mistakes that cut it short of something great, a few frustrating choices in an otherwise enjoyable flick.
